The police arrested the man at a shopping mall in Prai as he was ready to rape his fourth victim. Central Seberang Perai district police chief Nik Ros Azhan Nik Ab Hamid said that they had received tip-off of the man’s activities and with the help of the public, they were able to stop the man moments before he assault yet another girl at the same mall on Saturday.

Nik Ros Azhan said that the man posed as a woman on WeChat to approach underage girls. With some smooth talking, the man would convince the young girls to send “her” pictures of their breasts so he could “assess” the treatment needed.
